Ronald McDonald House Charities of Alabama
Families from throughout Alabama, across the United States and from around the world come to Birmingham's hospitals seeking life-saving treatment for their critically ill children. Often times, they come to Birmingham exhausted, scared and financially drained as they struggle to pay for overwhelming medical bills. Our House currently cares for 73 guest families every night, providing them with a "home-away-from-home" while their children receive medical treatment. In addition to providing a comfortable bedroom, we surround our families with love and support from our volunteers, staff and other guest families who share the same hopes and fears. We also provide home-cooked meals, activities, indoor and outdoor play areas, laundry facilities, computers and WiFi, and much more so that our guest families can concentrate on what is most important: family. We also provide a comfortable, relaxing place to rest and re-group while only steps away from a sick child’s bedside at our Ronald McDonald Family Room at DCH Regional Medical Center in Tuscaloosa and the Ronald McDonald Family Room at UAB Women & Infants Center.
